Dear boomers: please stop believing everything you see on Facebook or Twitter is the truth. You guys have no idea how many times I've had to chat with my parents about the fact that if an image or a text post isn't coming from a proper source, then it was probably written by some teenager in their bedroom. Anyone else?

How to handle your emotions in a less sex ( not no sex), and low quality sex marriage?

If you are a couple with no kids, how do you go about finding friends in the area? I struggle so much :( most of my close friends are now scattered across the country and I feel like we have no one close to us anymore. I don’t even know how we’d go about making new friends anymore!

Can straight guys and girls every just be friends? Every straight guy friend I have ever had has either expressed romantic or sexual interest at least once in our friendship or vice versa.

Worried about my dad. He spends hours every day watching/reading news, but only sites that support his point of view. When he’s not consuming news, he’s railing loudly against politicians he doesn’t like or people who are on “the other side”, completely distorting basic facts. It almost seems like he’s slowly losing his grip of reality. This is all he does in his free time, he has no interest or motivation to pursue any hobbies or other activities.

My mind is constantly going back and forth between how stagnant I am in my job with no prospects, how shit my relationship is, whether my rent is gonna increase, can I afford it and how this was somehow all I wanted at some point yet can’t seem to be satisfied which leads me to wonder if I will ever be. I’m so tired lol

I’m in need of some advice for my bridal shower. I’m trying to condense the list to help my mom & bridesmaids. We are inviting my fiancés coworkers and their significant others to the wedding. I’ve hung out with the couples a few times, but I wouldn’t say they are really friends outside of work events for him. Is it rude to not invite the wives to the shower?

Do we need to put in 2 weeks or could I negotiate to quit before that? (But still keep great relationships)

Looking for advice on personal space in a relationship. Been in thus relationship for 6 months. I date here and there but have not been in a serious relationship in a long time.

Hi everyone ,

I’m negotiating my salary, and I’m curious what a reporter/digital editorial lead makes at your company? I have 15+ years of experience in employee communications and TV news, and I live in the Seattle area. I think I’m being shortchanged bc I’m asked to do some of my previous manager’s responsibilities (he was promoted), but I’m paid as a reporter.

Tell me your craziest experience working with a TV network. Here comes mine:

I'm American, but my family is mostly Colombian. I was told my aunt and cousins would come here for 2 weeks. I discovered they were going to be paid to appear in a famous Hispanic TV show, where a "judge" receives a case, hears the plaintiffs and defendants and renders a verdict.

Can a newspaper use my photo without my consent?

I'm not a reporter, I'm just a citizen who took a picture during an event and uploaded it to my social media account. Turns out a digital media wrote me to have permission to use my picture, and when I said yes, they said they were looking for some other picture because I had already given permission to the competitors, which I didn't.
They just posted it without asking me, letting me know, or even mentioning my credits. Is this legal?

Any recommendations on remote media position?

I have experience in television news with a masters in PR/Marketing but I am looking to transition to remote work as possible an Editor or content producer!
